Cancer Clinical Trials in Atlanta, GA

This phase II trial examines transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) in patients with stage I-III breast cancer with chemotherapy induced peripheral neuropathy. TENS is a procedure in which mild electric currents are applied to some areas of the skin to potentially improve neuropathy. This trial may help determine if TENS is feasible and effective for the treatment of peripheral neuropathy symptoms while on chemotherapy. Read Less

This is a phase I, First-in-Human (FIH), open-label study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK) profile, and preliminary efficacy of RGT-419B administered orally as monotherapy OR in combination with Hormonal Therapy in subjects with HR+, HER2- locally advanced and unresectable (Stage III) or metastatic (Stage IV) breast cancer whose disease has progressed during prior therapy with an approved CDK4/6i plus hormonal therapy.

The purpose of this study is to find out whether avutometinib is a safe treatment for advanced or recurrent solid tumor cancers in children and young adults. Researchers will look for the highest dose of avutometinib that is safe and cause few or mild side effects. Read Less

This phase II trial tests how well defactinib and avutometinib in combination with nivolumab works in treating patients with LKB1-mutant non-small cell lung cancer that has not responded (refractory) to an anti-PD1 treatment and may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced). Defactinib and avutometinib belong to a class of drugs called kinase inhibitors. These drugs target kinase proteins found in tumor cells. Tumor cells need these proteins to survive and grow. By blocking these proteins, defactinib and avutometinib may cause tumors to stop growing or grow more slowly. Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as nivolumab, may help the body's immune system attack the tumor and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving defactinib and avutometinib in combination with nivolumab may kill more tumor cells in patients with anti-PD1 refractory LKB1-mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer. Read Less

The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy and safety of sacituzumab govitecan-hziy monotherapy and with novel combinations in participants with metastatic urothelial cancer (mUC). Read Less

The primary purpose of this study is to determine whether the investigational drug XmAb541 is safe and well tolerated, and to determine an optimal and safe dose(s) for further study. The study will also evaluate the effect of XmAb541 on tumor outcomes. Read Less

This randomized research trial studies how well serum tumor marker directed disease monitoring works in monitoring patients with hormone receptor positive Her2 negative breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body. Using markers to prompt when scans should be ordered may be as good as the usual approach to monitoring disease. Read Less

INDP-D101 is a Phase 1/2, open-label, multi-center, dose escalation and expansion study evaluating the safety, tolerability and clinical activity of Decoy20 as monotherapy and in combination with tislelizumab in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Read Less

This is a multicenter, prospective, randomized clinical trial that aims to assess the safety and efficacy of Aquablation Therapy in men with low-risk to intermediate to high-risk localized prostate cancer who are candidates for, or have opted for, prostatectomy. Participants will be randomized to either Aquablation Therapy or radical prostatectomy and followed up to 10 years. Read Less

This early phase I trial compares sodium fluoride F-18 (F-18 NaF) positron emission tomography (PET)/computed tomography (CT) to the standard of care imaging scan (and fludeoxyglucose F-18 \[F-18 FDG\] PET/CT) for assessing the effects radiation therapy has on the blood vessels in the neck in patients with head and neck cancers. For people with cancers in the head and neck, doctors often use radiation to target both the tumor and nearby glands. Radiation therapy to this region can affect the blood vessels in the neck that supply blood to the brain. F-18 NaF and F-18 FDG are contrast agents that can be used together with PET/CT imaging to visualize areas inside the body. A PET scan is a procedure in which a small amount of radioactive glucose (sugar) is injected into a vein, and a scanner is used to make detailed, computerized pictures of areas inside the body where the glucose is taken up. A CT scan is a procedure that uses a computer linked to an x-ray machine to make a series of detailed pictures of areas inside the body. The pictures are taken from different angles and are used to create 3-dimensional views of tissues and organs. Combining a PET scan with a CT scan can help make the image easier to interpret. PET/CT scans are hybrid scanners that combine both modalities into a single scan during the same examination. Imaging with F-18 NaF PET/CT may be as effective or more effective than the standard F-18 FDG PET/CT for assessing the effects radiation therapy has on blood vessels in the neck in patients with head and neck cancers.

The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of IDE161 as a single agent and in combination with pembrolizumab. Read Less

This clinical trial evaluates the impact of a research intervention of virtually supervised exercise program (RISE) on cancer-related cognitive impairment (CRCI), physical activity in adolescent and young adult (AYA) brain tumor survivors. This clinical trial also evaluates the impact of RISE on the collection of microorganisms that exist in the intestines (gut microbiome). Up to 45% of AYA brain tumor survivors experience CRCI, including issues with attention and memory. CRCI can have a negative impact on education, independent living and can worsen long-term quality of life. Moderate-intensity levels of exercise, particularly aerobic and resistance training, have been shown to improve cognitive function. Additionally, exercise can change the composition and function of the gut microbiome, which may lead to improved cognitive function. Unfortunately, only about 50% of AYAs with cancer receive exercise information or meet the physical activity recommendations. Tailoring a virtually delivered exercise intervention to meet the unique needs of AYAs may improve access to exercise. Participating in the virtual home-based exercise intervention, RISE, may improve physical activity and cognitive impairment in AYA brain tumor survivors and may also help researchers understand the relationship of exercise on the gut microbiome and cognitive function.
